Bug#213893: O: hotswap -- register/deregister hotswappable IDE hardware



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the hotswap package.
The package description is:
 Hotswap is a utility to register and deregister hotswappable IDE
 hardware. It is written to be used on Laptops with some sort of
 hardware bay to remove the module from the machine without rebooting
 it.
 .
 Note that this utility is not required to insert or remove batteries
 or floppy disk drives; only for IDE devices.

There's a new upstream version available, which includes a KDE
front-end. It needs some help to get it going, but since I no longer
have a laptop with such a hardware bay, I lack the motivation to
properly create an updated package.
